Christmas PostCards 2 is the rest of the artworks submitted by creative ladies for a group challenge. I'm privileged to showcase them here.
It would have been so much more fun if more ladies participated and sent in their creations. So far, we only have five participants but Valerie Smith, Jan Merkley from USA, Rosie Guiher from USA and Claude Aimee Villeneuve from Canada each sent in more than one art piece.
I challenge you to make your own post cards! Just download one of the postcard's templates and print on thick card stock. Each A4 size paper can make 4 pieces of Christmas post cards. Turn over and add color and rubber stamping.
Viola! Your very own handmade postcards!
The first few featured here were created by Valerie Smith from Canada but do scroll down and look at the others. Claude created some fun pieces with textile.

Do try making your own! It's really quite fun to do so. You can also use your computer to create the back of the card and put Carte Postale for French and use some Paris stamps or images for a fun mail card.
Talking of mail card, these are great as mail art as they are less expensive to send out to many people. Of course, you could add more to it by apply glitters, and other embellishments but with these 3D look, the card will cost more to send. And you might want to put it in an envelope to protect your artwork after all.
